Fieltros y Tejidos Industriales (Fytisa)

Synthetic Felts and Nonwoven Fabrics

Fieltros y Tejidos Industriales, S.L. (Fytisa) is a Spanish family-owned company that manufactures and sells synthetic felts and nonwoven fabrics. Its industrial history dates to 1841, when J. Soler founded Spain's first card-clothing company. FYTISA was established in 1946 to make wool felts, and in 1964 the company began producing nonwoven fabrics. In 1980, the business split into two companies: FYTISA, focused on synthetic nonwovens made from polyester, viscose, and other fibers, and Textil Olius, focused on wool felts.
